Today's game is Cyberpunk 2077. I've been wanting to save this for my new gaming rig i've been planning (i think Lemmy will be happy to know i'm planning to stay with Linux lol), but after getting news some of the parts won't be here until Febuary, i've decided my Steam Deck can go through one last Marathon Sprint through hell trying to drive a AAA game at 1080p before it gets retired to Emulation on the go, Alan Wake, and the Occasional Indie Game.

This game does an amazing job of capturing the feel of the American Interstate System i feel like. On top This is the first time i've played a game and gone "Wow. I feel like i'm really experiencing California Traffic. It's just as bad as the real thing." I mean this as a compliment, because i feel like it helps sell the vibe and make the city feel more realistic. And the skyline feels like an extra buit of realism too it.

I also got sidetracked petting this cat. The game gets an extra 10 points from me for letting me pet it:

And after visiting Viktor, i think he has to be my favorite character. He seems very chill and relaxed. I'm hoping he survives the game:

Enjoy Night City, my friend. I've done about four playthroughs of Cyberpunk and I love it. Nowadays I need to leave the dystopian shit alone though, bit too real.

I’ve never been a big dystopian fan and there’s only like one Dystopian thing I can name that I liked, But Cyber Punk’s world feels really well crafted. I think if it wasn’t for the bugs it might have had a pretty good shot on launch
